Need help on Bex Option for ODS.

Hi Experts,
   I couldnt able to find the Option " Enabling BEX" in Settings tab of the ODS. But in Manage Option of the ODS, I can able to see the Bex Reporting Option.In Query Designer, I couldnt able to see the ODS Objects.
While creating the new Query. I have clicked -> New Query -> After that Popup window will open.There I couldnt able to see "Create Query" in the pop-up window.
Can you please how to proceed further.
Thanks,
Jelina.

Hello,
If you are in 3.5,
With the BEx Reporting indicator, you determine whether the ODS object is immediately available for BEx queries. If the indicator is not set, no SIDs are generated for the new characteristics when the data in the ODS object is activated. This optimizes the performance of the activation process, but the ODS object is not available as an InfoProvider for queries. Turn the indicator off for all ODS objects that are only being used for further processing of data in other data targets or that are being used in InfoSets
If you are in 7.0,
SID generation upon activation in DSO means the generation of SID to the master data infoobject which is used in the DSO. If u wann report on DSO means check this box other wise leave unchecked, becose it will effect the loading performance
Try activating the DSO and launch query desingner again and try.

dhanya

    -Company Code
    -Cost center
    -Business Area
    -Begin and End Date.
    Other fields from IT0017 need to be derived from Position and update in IT0017.
    Please guide me how I can address this. I do not want to go for dynamic action, as it is not getting evoked during background jobs.
    I am new to BADI development and will appreciate step by step instructions.
    Thanks

    Hi,
         follow the below steps to achive
    Steps:
    1.     Execute Business Add-In(BADI) transaction SE18

    3.     Select menu option Implementation->Create
    4.     Give implementation a name such as Z_HRPAD00INFTY
    5.      You can now make any changes you require to the BADI within this
            implementation, for example choose the Interface tab there are 3 methods avialble
    6.     Double click on the method you want to change, you can now enter
            any code you require.
    7.      Please note to find out what import and export parameters a

  • Need help in bex query designer

    hi experts ,
    Actually we had a ODS where the KPI's values  for all weeks are present and also the module.
    in the query designer we need to show the targets for respective KPI's modulewise.
    the requirement is
    module-selections
    week no-selection
    targetweek1week2---week3
    KPI1--10090---90--
    90
    KPI2--95-7885-----90
    based on the module selection the targets values should change and also there should not be any restriction on weeks.
    and also exceptions needs to be done for color coding.
    we actually implemented cell defination for getting the above requirement , but here the problem is that we need to fix the  targets and there is arestriction on the weeks . but the requirement should be dynamic i.e, the targets should be configurable and the weeks should not be restricted.
    in the backend ODS all weeks data is present. we just need an idea how to fix these targets and also color coding for the respective KPI's without using cell defination.
    Kindly throw some pointers how to acheive this..
    thanks in advance,
    Madhu

    Hi Madhuri,
      Ur requirement can be done by using a customer exit variable,keeping any sap stand. time characteristics value.
    If u want to define the any selection dynamically,make a new selection with the text variable and call the customer exit variable into it and assaign the corresponding KPI into it and there by u can define the offset value as well.
      for writting the customer exit,u need to contact ur ABAP'er and say the requirement.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Need help with calculator project for an assignment...

    Hi all, I please need help with my calculator project that I have to do for an assignment.
    Here is the project's specifications that I need to do"
    """Create a console calculator applicaion that:
    * Takes one command line argument: your name and surname. When the
    program starts, display the date and time with a welcome message for the
    user.
    * Display all the available options to the user. Your calculator must include
    the arithmetic operations as well as at least five scientific operations of the
    Math class.
    -Your program must also have the ability to round a number and
    truncate it.
    -When you multiply by 2, you should not use the '*' operator to perform the
    operation.
    -Your program must also be able to reverse the sign of a number.
    * Include sufficient error checking in your program to ensure that the user
    only enters valid input. Make use of the String; Character, and other
    wrapper classes to help you.
    * Your program must be able to do conversions between decimal, octal and
    hex numbers.
    * Make use of a menu. You should give the user the option to end the
    program when entering a certain option.
    * When the program exits, display a message for the user, stating the
    current time, and calculate and display how long the user used your
    program.
    * Make use of helper classes where possible.
    * Use the SDK to run your program."""
    When the program starts, it asks the user for his/her name and surname. I got the program to ask the user again and again for his/her name and surname
    when he/she doesn't insert anything or just press 'enter', but if the user enters a number for the name and surname part, the program continues.
    Now my question is this: How can I restrict the user to only enter 'letters' (and spaces of course) but allow NO numbers for his/her surname??

    Now my question is this: How can I restrict the user to only enter 'letters' (and spaces of course) but allow NO numbers for his/her surname??You cannot restrict the user. It is a sad fact in programming that the worst bug always sits in front of the Computer.
    What you could do is checking the input string for numbers. If it contains numbers, just reprompt for the Name.
    AND you might want to ask yourself why the heck a calculator needs to know the users Name.

  • Need help choosing optimal hardware for a laptop that will run AE CS5

    BACKGROUND INFO (Questions listed below)
    I need some help figuring out the best hardware configuration for a new laptop. I’m a student at a design school and I will be using the laptop to mainly run After Effects and to a lesser extent Photoshop and Illustrator. I don’t need to worry about 3D rendering software or Premier Pro. I am primarily interested in getting the best performance during editing. I am not looking for the best performance for final output. I would prefer to sacrifice final output times for better editing/interface performance.
    I will be working with standard definition content and perhaps HD up to 720p on occasion. I do not need to operate in resolutions higher than 720p. My projects are generally animation and use many sources and many layers.
    I’ve been reading up on optimal hardware configurations for CS5 but my understanding is still a little foggy and I would like to use this thread to figure out how to build the best machine for my budget. The budget is about $1400 to $1600 CANADIAN after tax.
    I DON’T need help finding the laptop. I will search for it on my own. I just need to understand the best hardware to purchase within my budget.
    I realize that it is probably impossible to buy the laptop I want with the hardware configuration I need “off the shelf”. Instead I will be looking for a good base model (~$900-$1100) and I will purchase the necessary hardware upgrades separately. I will not be purchasing a Mac.
    Right now I’m thinking of a machine built something like this:
    - 15”-16” screen (17” models are too big/heavy)
    - Mid to high end i5 processor OR entry level i7 quad core
    - 8GB RAM (I would go to 12GB, but it’s hard to find a 15”-16” laptop with 3 memory slots)
    - SSD to replace HDD (However, if possible, I would like a laptop with dual HDD support or swap the optical drive for another HDD. If I had access to 2 drives, I would have and HDD/SSD combo).
    - Medium/high end NVIDIA GPU to take advantage of OpenGL while editing.
    QUESTIONS
    1) Does the “Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously” option enhance general editing performance (applying filters, scrubbing through the timeline, reverting history states)? Or does it ONLY help speed up RAM previews and final output? Does it reduce the length of RAM previews?
    1b) Is this option even necessary to enable on 64bit systems? (As far as I understand it was used to solve a problem where 32bit systems/software would only recognize 4GB of RAM per instance of AE).
    1c) If I turn this option on to help with RAM previews, would I be hindering general editing performance in any way? Or does this option have basically zero drawbacks?
    2) How come “Actual CPUs that will be used” will read 0 even if the sum total of RAM assigned to the CPUs plus the RAM reserved for other applications is less than the total available system RAM (on a 64bit system)? For example, I currently have 4GB RAM and 2 installed CPUs. I have 1.5GB reserved for other programs and when I set 0.75GB per CPU both CPUs are used. However when I set 1GB per CPU then 0 CPUs are used, even though the total RAM adds up to only 3.5GB.
    CPU
    3.) Considering the fact that I am more concerned with smooth performance while editing rather than final output speeds, would it be better to get a dual core i5 clocked around 2.5 or a quad core i7 clocked around 1.8?
    4.) What is the difference between an i3 and an i5 processor even if they are clocked at the same speed? How does an i5 460M compare on the grand scheme of things?
    RAM
    6.) Should the quantity of RAM that I get (8GB vs 12GB) be based on the number of cores in my CPU? If so, how should I be calculating optimal RAM based on # of cores. Should I also be counting threads, or just actual physical cores?
    STORAGE/SWAP
    7.) Should I replace the HDD with an SSD? I'm looking for snappy interface performance while editing. I would think that if the RAM fills up it would be best to have the SSD for scratch/cache.
    8.) What performance benchmarks are most important when considering an SSD for After Effects? (4k writes? IOs per second? Max read/write?)
    9.) I can afford the OCZ Vertex2 120GB SSD. Would this be a good choice if an SSD is recommended?
    10.) Would it be better to have 8GB of RAM and an SSD, or 12GB of RAM and an HDD? Explain why.
    GPU
    10.) After Effects utilizes OpenGL to enhance editing performance. I will not really be using Premier Pro, so catering to the CUDA Mercury Engine is not a concern. Do high end gaming cards provide significant gains in OpenGL performance? Or do OpenGL performance gains taper off around the mid-range GPUs? (i.e. can you justify buying a high end GTX 260M graphics card for enhanced editing performance versus an "entry level" dedicated card like the 310M?)
    11.) What hardware specs are most important when considering a GPU for editing performance in AE? (Memory size? # of Pixel shaders? Core speed? Shader speed?)
    Thanks so much for any answers you can offer to these questions.

    Please make sure that you've read through this page and what it points to.

    previews?
    It only increases rendering speed for RAM previews and rendering for final output. In After Effects CS5, it doesn't decrease the length of RAM previews. (In CS4, it does.)
    1b) Is this option even necessary to enable on 64bit
    systems? (As far as I understand it was used to solve a problem where
    32bit systems/software would only recognize 4GB of RAM per instance of
    AE).
    You misunderstood. Yes, it's still relevant on 64-bit computers. Moreso, in a way. (I'd rather not spend my entire Sunday writing out detailed answers to satisfy idle curiosity, so I'm not going to give all the technical detail to that answer.)
    > 1c) If I turn this option on to help with RAM previews,
    would I be hindering general editing performance in any way? Or does
    this option have basically zero drawbacks?
    It takes a small but nonzero time for the background processes to start up when they need to be used and shut down when they're done. And as they sit waiting, they take up a little bit of memory. So, it's not exactly correct to say that there are no downsides to leaving it on. But it's close. I leave it on.
    > 2) How come “Actual CPUs that will be used” will read 0 even
    if the sum total of RAM assigned to the CPUs plus the RAM reserved for
    other applications is less than the total available system RAM (on a

    CPUs. I have 1.5GB reserved for other programs and when I set 0.75GB per
    CPU both CPUs are used. However when I set 1GB per CPU then 0 CPUs are
    used, even though the total RAM adds up to only 3.5GB.
    4GB - 1.5GB for other software leaves 2.5 GB for After Effects.
    If you have 1GB assigned per background CPU, then the foreground takes 1.2x that = 1.2GB. That leaves 1.3GB for background processes, which is enough for one background process. There's no point in starting only one background process to do rendering, so it doesn't bother. (Note: When background processes are rendering, the foreground process isn't rendering.)
    > 3.) Considering the fact that I am more concerned with
    smooth performance while editing rather than final output speeds, would
    it be better to get a dual core i5 clocked around 2.5 or a quad core i7
    clocked around 1.8?
    Get the quad-core. That gives you a greater total number of cycles. And After Effects works very well with mutliple processors, even beyond Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing. An entirely unrelated sort of multiprocessing (multithreading) spreads work out to multiple processors.
    > 6.) Should the quantity of RAM that I get (8GB vs 12GB) be based on the number of cores in my CPU? If
    so, how should I be calculating optimal RAM based on # of cores. Should
    I also be counting threads, or just actual physical cores?
    The optimum amount is the amount that you can cram into the computer. I'm not kidding. Spend your budget on RAM until you have 4GB installed per processor (and I'm counting the virtual processors due to hyperthreading). If you have a quad-core, that's 8 CPUs with hyperthreading, so the optimum amount of RAM installed is 32GB. You can work with less, but you did ask about optimum. For HD work (i.e., 1920 pixels across), you're OK with more like 3GB installed per CPU. That's what I have at home: 24GB in a quad-core. You're going to assign 2/3 or so of the RAM to After Effects, so 3GB installed per CPU is 2GB per core for HD work in After Effects.
    > 10.) Would it be better to have 8GB of RAM and an SSD, or 12GB of RAM and an HDD? Explain why.
    12GB of RAM. Because After Effects likes RAM. (If you're thinking of deliberatly using virtual memory to swap memory to the hard disk, don't. That's a performance killer.)
    > 10.) After Effects utilizes OpenGL to enhance editing performance.
    Not really. If you're on a limited budget, don't even think about the GPU until you've already got the most RAM, the fastest CPUs, the largest number of CPUs, two fast hard disks, and a couple of good monitors. Then, and only then, should you even consider getting soemthing beyond a non-stock graphics card. Yes, OpenGL can be used to accelerate some things, but that's only for the low-fidelity preview renderer. (Pardon the bluntness, but I want to make sure that you heed this.)

  • Need help in dynamic report for a range of year and period

    Dear all,
    I need help in creating an ALV report with dynamic columns based on the Year and period entered on the selection screen. for example if in the year we enter 2002 and period range from 10 to 12 then we should get the 3 columns display for cost(example) for period 10/2002, 11/2002 and 12/2002.
    Can anyone help me in achieving this dynamically since the user can enter the year also in intervals along with the period and data also needs to be populated in the corresponding columns.
    An example code would be of great help.

  • Small business needing help with additional license for CC for 3 months

    (I was prompted to ask a question as a first time user of the forum but it seems to have disappeared which is a little frustrating. So here I go again, hope this time it works...)
    I'm a small business with a single user license for Creative Cloud which I've been subscribing to for about a year now. I have a foreign student coming to do training and get experience with us for 3 months - as his area of learning is Adobe design he will need access to Adobe CC.
    I can't afford to buy a year's subscription for him but I was wondering if it would be possible to buy a 3 month's student license for Adobe CC. He starts on the 3rd of March so this is quite urgent...
    I couldn't find a contact number to talk to a sales person in Ireland so I hope some one can help me before the 3rd of March.
    Thanks,
    Niamh
    (Adobe user since 1999)

    No pre-paid cards in Ireland it seems. And my only option for month-to-month is to create a new Adobe ID and get Adobe Apps at €25/app/month. I'd love to up-grade to the Team subscription but it seems I can't get out of my one-year subscription in time to take advantage of the offer that goes out of date by the end of Feb. My renewal happens in June which means if I cancelled I'd have to pay 50% of the remaining months on top of paying for the new team sub... Why is it so hard to just get my student covered for 3 months - Adobe doesn't like small businesses, I guess we're not worth the hassle... Frustrating.

  • Need help in shutdown primary for maintaince (new to oracle dba)

    Hi,
    BANNER
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
    PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
    CORE 9.2.0.3.0 Production

    actually we have primary database server and the physical standby server with protection mode is maxperformance and for maintaince we need to shutdown primary server so what are the steps i need to follow since my primary database is configured with DATAGAURD and i would like to follow the folllowing steps please advice me:
    to shutdown standby server:
    from primary server connecting to dgmgrl
    dgmgrl>DISABLE SITE standby_site1;
    then connecting to standby server
    sql>alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
    sql>shu immediate;
    and finnaly connecting to primary server
    sql>shu immediate
    is it right since i am new to datagaurd concept need help.
    Regards
    Prakash

    You can do so, but you would shutdown the whole standby environment. But normally standby is used to have no or only short downtime. So a switchover to the standby DB is performed (after this standby is now running as primary), maintenance is done on the primary and then at the end another switchover back from the 'new' primary to the 'old' primary.

  • Need help on SQL Statement for UDF

    Hi,
    as I am not so familiar with SQL statements on currently selected values, I urgently need help.
    The scenario looks as follows:
    I have defined two UDFs named Subgroup1 and Subgroup2 which represent the subgroups dependent on my article groups. So for example: When the user selects article group "pianos", he only sees the specific subgroups like "new pianos" and "used pianos" in field "Subgroup1". After he has selected one of these specific values, he sees only the specific sub-subgroups in field "Subgroup2", like "used grand pianos".
    I have defined UDTs for both UDFs. The UDT for field "Subgroup1" has a UDF called "ArticleGroup" which represents the relation to the article group codes. The UDT for field "Subgroup2" has a UDF called "Subgroup1" which represents the relation to the subgroups one level higher.
    The SQL statement for the formatted search in field "Subgroup1" looks as follows:
    SELECT T0.[Name] FROM [dbo].[@B_SUBGROUP1]  T0 WHERE T0.[U_ArticleGroup]  = (SELECT $[OITM.ItmsGrpCod])
    It works fine.
    However, I cannot find the right statement for the formatted search in field "Subgroup2".
    Unfortunately this does NOT WORK:
    SELECT T0.[Name] FROM [dbo].[@B_SUBGROUP2]  T0 WHERE T0.[U_Subgroup1]  = (SELECT $[OITM.U_Subgroup1])
    I tried a lot of others that didn't work either.
    Then I tried the following one:
    SELECT T0.[Name] FROM [dbo].[@B_SUBGROUP2]  T0 WHERE T0.[U_Subgroup1] = (SELECT T1.[Code] FROM [dbo].[@B_SUBGROUP1] T1 WHERE T1.[U_ArticleGroup] = (SELECT $[OITM.ItmsGrpCod]))
    Unfortunately that only works as long as there is only one specific subgroup1 for the selected article group.
    I would be sooooo happy if there is anyone who can tell me the correct statement for my second UDF!
    Thanks so much in advance!!!!
    Edited by: Corinna Hochheim on Jan 18, 2010 10:16 PM
    Please ignore the "http://" in the above statements - it is certainly not part of my SQL.
    Please also ignore the strikes.

    Hello Dear,
    Use the below queries to get the values:
    Item Sub Group on the basis of Item Group
    SELECT T0.[Name] FROM [dbo].[@SUBGROUP]  T0 WHERE T0.[U_GroupCod] =$[OITM.ItmsGrpCod]
    Item Sub Group 1 on the basis of item sub group
    SELECT T0.[Name] FROM [dbo].[@SUBGROUP1]  T0 WHERE T0.[U_SubGrpCod]=(SELECT T0.[Code] FROM [dbo].[@SUBGROUP]  T0 WHERE T0.[Name] =$[OITM.U_ItmsSubgrp])
    Sub group 2 on the basis of sub group 1
    SELECT T0.[Name] FROM [dbo].[@SUBGROUP2]  T0 WHERE T0.[U_SubGrpCod1]=(SELECT T0.[Code] FROM [dbo].[@SUBGROUP1]  T0 WHERE T0.[Name] =$[OITM.U_ItmsSubgrp1])
    this will help you.
